I don’t see this getting any better at this point. Some slight Brett that blew away after being open for a little bit. Fruit is still present with some secondary aromas and flavors on the nose and palate. — 6 days ago

Medium gold, heavy like oil in the glass. Complex nose with notes of citrus, stones, marzipan and a little honey. A hint of oxidation is evident, but it's part of the complexity this bottle offers tonight. In the mouth this has massive power, yet is silky and coats the palate. — 14 days ago

No formal notes ….Medium straw colour . Quite intense slightly smoky lemon peel , flinty , oyster shell nose . On the palate quite surprising intensity and excellent length , refreshing acidity . Nice yellow fruits and roundness allied to great freshness . Drinking surprisingly well , though better in 5-10 years and should hold for a further 5-10. — 11 days ago

Classicism in spades. Showing a perfect balance ripeness and and energy in 2020 with stunning concentration, layers of defined fruit and minerality and a chiseled core of racy acids. A fabulous rendition this year. — 3 hours ago

A stunning nose. Lemon, lifted bright floral notes. A whiff of gunpowder. On the palate, dazzling with electric acidity and bright dynamic notes. Gorgeous — 7 days ago

Light gold, heavy in the glass. High pitched nose. Notes of green apples, sweet kiwi fruit, citrus, lime blossoms. Although the nose is expressive, this is closed and tight in the mouth (despite being open for 6 hours we're told). At first I had this rated as being a bit behind the 96 Clos and Blanchot next to it, but over the evening this powered up and in the end was equal to its siblings. Has many years of enjoyment in front of it. — 14 days ago

Tawny color, translucent and light in the glass. A killer nose if there ever was one. Notes of cherries, tan spice, rhubarb, dark soil and sandalwood. Has "the funk". In the mouth it's so rich and silky. Very refined. Killer juice. — 14 days ago
